The Einasto profile is a mathematical function that describes how the density ρ of a spherical stellar system varies with distance r from its center. Jaan Einasto introduced his model at a 1963 conference in Alma-Ata, Kazakhstan. The Einasto profile possesses a power law logarithmic slope of the form: γ ≡ − d ln ρ d ln r ∝ r α which can be rearranged to give ρ ∝ exp . The parameter α controls the degree of curvature of the profile. This can be seen by computing the slope on a log-log pl
